    Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns by Shereif Hassan Mahmoud A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Water Resources Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Alberta © Shereif Hassan Mahmoud, 2020 Abstract In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate change has led to more frequent occurrences of droughts of greater severity. Beside climate change, human activities have also incurred negative environmental impact which in turn has likely affected the climate at a wide range of temporal-spatial scales worldwide. For example, in the Middle East, floods of greater magnitude have been occurring more frequently in recent decades, which could be attributed partly to rapid urbanization or the effect of climate change, or both. In the Nile River basin (NRB), recurring droughts and increasing population have led to rising tension between competing users for water. Therefore, to develop more effective mitigation strategies against the potential impact of climate change, there is an urgent need to better understand changes to the hydrologic cycle of arid regions and linkage to regional climate change. The objectives of this dissertation are: 1) To investigate the potential implications of urbanization and climate change to the flood risk of Egypt and Saudi Arabia of arid climate in the Middle East.

  • Changing Perspectives on Responsible Heritage Site Management: the Case of Luxor City, Egypt
    CHANGING PERSPECTIVES ON RESPONSIBLE HERITAGE SITE MANAGEMENT: THE CASE OF LUXOR CITY, EGYPT Perspectivas em mudança sobre a gestão responsável de sítios de patrimônio: o caso da Cidade de Luxor, Egito Eman Shokry Hesham* Inken Baller** ABSTRACT This paper aims to enhance critical awareness about the development of heritage site management, specifically focusing on archaeological sites and their adjacent communities in Egypt. To what extent does heritage site management assume responsibility for local communities? For their identity? And for tourism practices? This paper uses the heritage impact assessment tool developed by ICOMOS to assess the management systems and the heritage influence of the UNESCO World Heritage Site “Ancient Thebes with its Necropolis” on the modern-day city of Luxor, Egypt. This tool proposes a set of recommendations for local and national authorities to develop action plans that safeguard the living history of the area around the site. The results suggest ways in which the tool could be improved by enhancing mitigation strategies for tourism-related impacts and re-identifying the variables of Egyptian archaeological sites in order to develop more responsible models of local community identity and visitor awareness.
